 * Hi – great plugin – before I start hacking something together I’m just wondering
   if there is any ‘native’ way to force a logged out user to enter an email address
   before being able to download files?
 * My scenario is that there will be a list of resources that a user can select 
   from -> click download -> enter email (not necessarily create an account – client
   just wants the data capture) -> download zip of selected resources -> celebrate
 * It would be best for the enter email stage to happen in a modal on the same page.
   Is this something that has been done before? or would it be a case of looking
   into the redirect url and ajaxing in a form/ modal…
 * Thanks – any pointers greatly appreciated.
